grand old day.


New York & Co. shorts & top // NYC bracelet // vintage flats // vintage bag



This last weekend was grand old day in st. paul - the twin to minneapolis. It was a wonderful day filled with a ton of sunshine, a dash of rain and a bunch of yummy food! The festivities start at one end of grand avenue and ends at the other.I truly enjoy being immersed in a sea of people. There is nothing better to me on a hot summer sunday then to feast on street vendor food and people watch.

I'm not the best person to walk behind in these kind of situations, because i am constantly distracted, veering left, swaying right. If i traced my path i'm sure it would look something like a big swiggley ball of twine.

I really wanted to take pictures of my street style inspiration, but just couldn't get up the nerve to start snapping pics of random people walking by me. I would have felt sort of like a stalker or creep. So i just strolled and observed.

The outfit i'm wearing is nothing fancy, just a classic navy short, flowy blouse and flats that absolutely killed my feet by the end of the day! I had to finally give in and take them off for the hike home. My poor feet were just dying.
